But you couldn't resist starting one yourself. ::)  It's like a drug, Snypps. :D

We congratulated Pope Francis in the "listening now" thread with a little tango.

Yeah, I listened to his Piazzolla's not the Pope's bandoneon concerto "Aconcagua" - superb!

And I watched Tropa de Elite - Pope Francis will probably visit Rio soon...

Maybe I'll finally muster the courage to listen to Messiaen's Saint François d'Assise..

I think I'll listen to Scriabin's "Black Mass" Sonata (No.9).   >:D

There's lots of poop threads though.

I'm not Catholic but I like him. A man after my own heart: conservative in essentials, progressive in details.  :D

I hope one day they will decide to chose a woman for pope (the papette, or popette?), and someone under the age of 80.  ;D

And perhaps a maximum fixed term (sort of like the U.S. presidency)

Oh well, at least for many, many centuries they have stopped beheading them.  :o

Perhaps this might be the most appropriate listening for the occasion.

Clemens non Papa would be more appropriate in this thread  8)

Consistently choosing someone over 80, however, helps them effectively have fixed term limits without having to spell it out.  ;)

Kudos to GMG members for no pope thread?  Something wrong with a pope thread?  Looks like we have one now  :)
